The
Best of Obliviou$
I have seen the future of television - and it is Obliviou$. This
show is part game show, part hidden camera show - and it works.
One of my favorite game shows from the eighties was Anything For Money,
where in-studio contestants would bet on the outcome of a Candid Camera
style prank. Obliviou$ eliminates the studio - the game is played
surreptitiously while the 'contestant' is engaged in some bizarre prank.

Billed as
the "game show you don't know you're on," Obliviou$ premiered on The New
TNN in 2002 It's sleazy, cheap, tawdry and funny as hell. You've heard
the expression, "it's so bad it's good?" The Best of Obliviou$
is so bad it hurts - from laughing.
Host Regan Burns is the most unusual game show host of all time, he alternates
between repulsive and ridiculous.

My favorite
moments are when the unsuspecting contestants learn they've won some money.
The excited look on their faces is quickly overcome when they find out
it's less than a hundred bucks. A hundred dollars to humiliate yourself
on TV? I guess that's the going rate - in Los Angeles anyway.

So how is
this the future of television? When you can shoot an episode of a TV program
for $300, who's going to want to do it the old fashioned way? How long
will it be before we're watching security camera footage for entertainment?

Product Description
"Oblivious" is the game show you don't even know you're
on - where being in the right place at the right time can win you
money! Using hidden camera field segments, unsuspecting people are
stealthily quizzed by Regan Burns, our well-disguised host, where
they least suspect it: in a cab, at the hairdresser, in the bank,
on the street, at a restaurant, in a bar. Humor ensues as everyday
people try to answer simple questions on topics from pop culture and
fine arts to politics and entertainment, unaware that they are on
camera. Correct answers rack up cash, but incorrect answers just rack
up laughs!
